The drop.io API: plug & play rich media + filesharing for apps.

Drop.io makes ‘drops’, powerful points of exchange through which you can move files and rich media.

Each drop is a resource bundle for you to use:

  • inputs -> access permissions -> outputs (a flexible asset ‘pipeline’) more
  • conversion engine (cross format playback) more
  • realtime XMPP hub/chatroom (push, pingback & much more) more

With the drop.io API, your app can leverage our core web-services to share what you want, with whom you want, how you want. Anything you can do with the drop.io interface, you can do via the API, so you can develop powerful extensions to the drop.io service, or cherry pick specific functionality from drop.io for your apps. more
